What a week! We had a busy and fulfilling four days of teaching in Tarma. Shaun and I consider ourselves very lucky to have been paired with Clever as our host teacher because he is very well connected and we were able to teach in three unique settings during our week here.

On Saturday, we flew from Lima to Tarma and were warmly greeted by our host teacher, Clever. He was kind enough to pick us up an hour away from the Jauja airport and take us back to Tarma. Shaun, my American teaching partner, and I were happy for less traffic, more sunshine, and mountain fresh air (Tarma has an elevation of about 10,000 feet). We had a great weekend exploring Tarma and had a great Monday meeting Clever's students and teaching English.
First Days in Tarma Highlights:
-EB We have arrived in Lima, Peru! Monday was spent traveling from the US to Peru. The TGC Fellows, our US IREX coordinator, Max, and our in-country coordinator, Karina, met at the Lima airport in the evening and took a bus ride to our hotel in Miraflores. The past three days have been spent catching up with TGC Fellows (we have a very fun group), learning about Peruvian history and culture, and taking bus adventures around Lima.
